How do they run? Which ones would you recommend?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] tcallahan:
Gensiod and Gamboid both work and work amazing.... Sega games on my xoom are the awesome.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Just-in-time:
I am useing Snesoid with my wii motes and it works amazing. The trick is to find good rom files.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] JaredC01:
Going to bump this thread instead of starting a new one... I've just purchased a Xoom, and went to move over my emulators from my Evo. If I restore from Titanium Backup (backed up on my Evo) to my Xoom, I get FC's, however it seems that the Gensoid emulator and the Gearoid emulator both have been removed from the market (even after paying for the full version). I've been able to successfully restore the rest of them from the market, and they're working properly, though neither of the two above are working properly.

I restored the apps WITHOUT restoring the data for them.

Any ideas?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Prod1702:
I am using FPse and psx4droid v2 for my PSX one. v3 of psx4droid does not work for me where v2 works great. Also using N64oid for my N64 roms, for SNES i am using SNesoid. All of which i am using a OTG cable for the 360 adapter so i can use my wireless 360 controller. I was using the Wiimote for awhile but just didn't like the button setup on it. the 360 controller works great. only buttons not working are the L and R tiggers and the bottom stick. all other buttons work no problems. Do a search for the apks for those programs on google and you should find the apks for them.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vamp6x6x6x:
GBCoid, Gameboid, N64oid, and Fpse all seem to run pretty good, so any of those.

GBCoid and Gameboid both have a free light version

Fpse is about $6 or so, and its a psx emu incase u didnt know.

N64oid when you can find it in the market is about $6
[Xoom Themes and Apps] johnjohn25:
Surprisingly they all work well. SNESoid, GBAoid, and N64oid. Just use Rom Fetcher (Classic) and you're good. However not alot of roms work well on N64oid but mario kart 64 and mario 64 work okay. On screen keyboard works well for most. Need to get an adapter for my 360 controller.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] JaredC01:
No one has said anything to help with my issue... I have the emulators, but the Gensoid and Gearoid are gone from the market... I restored them, but they FC every time. Help?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vidriera:
Really the only other option you have is to google around and find an apk that works. I got gensoid before it was out of the market, and it works on the xoom, so I know there is a version that works. The version I have is 2.4.3 and it never gives me problems.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] JaredC01:
Same version I've got.

Edit: seems to work after installing again. Weird.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] erniev:
I cant get gensoid to work either. Thats the last piece of the puzzel for me.

there is a weird audio sync issue in the video but it's youtube's fault, not the xoom's.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vamp6x6x6x:
Nice video makes me think about installing the Sega emu bc that sonic brought back memorizes...god Im old lol
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ChongoDroid:
Don't restore the data try app only. I don't have gensoid but I got all the others... I back up with no compression with TB, then email it to myself and it installs just fine :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] gizhola:
Does anyone know of a good MAME emulator that can play classic arcace roms on the xoom?

Thanks man 2.3.4 works perfectly.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] vidriera:
all of yongzh's apps were removed from the market, but he has posted them all on slideme including an updated n64oid and gensoid 2.4.3. He also mentions that he is doing a big overhaul of n64oid, which sounds terrific.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] FloatingFatMan:
Emulators, especially of consoles, has always been a rather grey legal area. The console makers usually ignore it as long as people aren't charging for them, but as soon as they do, it becomes a whole different kettle of hungry sharks.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vamp6x6x6x:
hmm, I suppose you are right. No one cares what we do until we make money from it, then they try to sue us for every penny we have, lol...

But, couldn't Google just have taken the games down and not ban his account?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] kamdroid:
nevermind, already answered
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vamp6x6x6x:
I wonder what this means for FPse
[Xoom Themes and Apps] SPIDERTECH:
I tried TigerSNES on the Xoom and it FCs every time. I found Snes9x EX in the market recently and it works like a charm. Making the on screen controls as big as they can go is perfect for the Xoom. It's based off of the Snes9x code so just like snes9x, it's free.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] patass:
Yongzh moved over the SlideMe marketplace and the emus are free for now, so get it while you can. I'll continue supporting him.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Kah-Neth:
Why would you support him? He stole code from other's and used it to make a profit.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Atlas51:
look at me thread it name "yongzh's Emulators"

i collected all yongzh's Emulators

:D download it n enjoy dude
[Xoom Themes and Apps] SPIDERTECH:
I think he meant to get them for free while you can instead of paying for them, thereby supporting him.

I sure wouldn't support him. When I was checking out Snes9x EX the dev even makes note that it's based on the Snes9x code which has a non-commercial use license and should not be sold. Not even emulators created using it's code should be sold. If any of these emulators use code from non-commercial use licensed emulators they shouldn't be sold either.

I found it funny when I first started using android and found sooooo many of the emulators I used for free in windows mobile were paid apps in the market. Something just didn't seem right about that.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] patass:
i didnt know about any of that, i thought he coded everything himself.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] FloatingFatMan:
Nope, he's a dirty little code thief profiting on the hard work and generosity of REAL coders.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] patass:
well, regardless, i dont see any better options for genesis emulation yet.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] vamp6x6x6x:
I agree, Rather the coded is stolen or not his emulators seem to be the best out there thus far.

It's in the sticky (which you linked to in your signature, haha)... it allows you to verify the integrity of your download.

A lot of times, when people have issues its because of a bad download. Checking the MD5 assures your file is correct.

You mentioned Triggers, to Birgertimes credit, he references the application in his post you need to verify MD5s (also in my sticky).

All that aside, thanks for linking my sticky in your signature!

Your knowledge is wrong. I use it every day. You have to go into the settings and change the LED Method to "Moto Droid Froyo" and it works fine. TYL.
[Droid 2 Global Themes and Apps] jjdavola:
I really like Search Light. I found it to be much brighter than most of the others I tried on my D2G. FYI I then put a shortcut to it on one of my Extended Controls widgets.

Perfect app wow, and the ability that you can create your own more complicated widgets. Great.

Yeah it works. Im just disappointed in how dim the dual LEDs are on this phone. My nexus one and g2 had single LEDs and were blindingly bright. I was expecting more.

Hi,

i've got a problem..

i realy want a nightly build so that i can install these themes

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=11693039#post11693039

I have a Nand rom (Gauner) which i had to install just by flashing my gsm out of the aMAGLDR V1.11 menu by using option 4. USB FLASHER and just following the installation menu after pressing the DAF file on the computer.

now to update the aMAGLDR i have to sync my phone to the pc. which seems to work on the gsm, but when i try to install the aMAGLDR by double clicking ROMUpdateUtility to install aMAGLDR he can't find my phone, saying it's not synced to the pc...

if i can't do that, i don't think i can proceed installing a nightly build...

and further than that i have no clue how to install the nightly build because its not just the DAF file to double click since there is none... you have to 'flash' it.. but i don't see what to flash & how to do it.

Can someone help me please?

thanks in advance.

[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
ROM: Sky Raider 3.5

Kernel: 2.6.32.27.incredikernel-plus25

Battery: 2150mAh OEM Extended (smexy with case)

- No setCPU, but kernel has one built in.

- No bump charging.

- Light use, I purposely tried to not use it too much just because I was curious how long it could make it (like if I were ever stuck somewhere without a charger, knowing how long my phone could last if I did not constantly stay on it).

~ 1.5 hours of 3G pandora

~45 mins of texting

~30 mins phone calls

~20 minutes of 'My Tracks' app

~15 mins GPS navigation

~10 mins angry birds (tehehe, couldn't resist)

3G, GPS and location were ON entire time.

Thought I'd share :rolleyes:
[Droid Incredible General] smoonyheim:
since skyraider is a sense rom you can use that kernel?

i thought incredikernal was AOSP?

edit:

i'm retarded.

was thinking of the new incredikernal. fail on my part!
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
invisiblek is AOSP, incredikernel is Sense

(actually chad aka incredikernel is starting to develop some new GingerBread AOSP kernels)
[Droid Incredible General] spatton:
Wanted to subscribe, forgot to!
[Droid Incredible General] spatton:
To what do you attribute the most battery life to?

o 2150 mah battery?

o Kernel?

o Skyraider?

Scott
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
2150mAh definitely, Kernel next and Skyraider after that. I saw noticeable improvements when I used Sky Raider over stock, and used chad's incredikenel over stock so I feel they have significant improvements on battery life for sure.

With screen off I'll get about 1.5 hours per %, with screen on and doing things it's completely different.

Much of this test was to see how long it would last with screen off and with those services (like 3G) running.
[Droid Incredible General] cakaros:
Very impressive. Don't think I can go over 24 hours with stock battery, CM7 and incredikernel.
[Droid Incredible General] spatton:
I think I can get 24 hours, with reasonable use. I use juice defender which REALLY helps a lot - at least in my life.

Scott
[Droid Incredible General] TokedUp:
the 2150 makes the phone so ugly and disfigured I couldnt use it. I am running SR3.5 but I get great batt life with Lou #8 kernel and the 1800mah Inc/Evo batt.

Unfortunately battery problems will be around for a while, did you hear the rumors about the T-bolt batt? LOL, 3 totals hours on a full charge! These "phones" or whatever you want to call them are so powerful and do so many different things its hard to design a strong battery at that size. Phone management is crucial.
[Droid Incredible General] NickTheCreator:
thats impressive, im still using my stock battery and I'm tired of worrying about it dying and bump charging

[Droid Incredible General] Div033:
I too got some crazy long battery life on Skyraider 3.5. Only reason I left was because ihtfp is no longer supporting them. When I tried MIUI for the 3rd time I really got into it (using LP) but I haven't been able to reproduce that awesome battery life I had on SR... Yet, at least.

I also dearly miss the Awake Time stat. All aosp roms should have that.

I got my case from here:

http://htcpedia.com/news/case-cover-htc-droid-incredible-extended-batteryc.html

Without the case I'll admit it looks a bit weird though not that bad.

And about the thunderbolt only lasting 3 hours?

lul cakes, I read this:

http://androidcommunity.com/htc-thu...ored-to-be-due-to-poor-battery-life-20110228/

I thought HTC would have learned from the incredible that they seriously need to upgrade the battery. I hope they do a full redesign where they stick just a long battery down the entire back of the phone so people don't have to get extended batteries that bulge out.
[Droid Incredible General] superchilpil:
U

Thats a rumor about the TB, supposedly it has a more energy efficient processor compared to our inc so it will last longer with the smaller battery. Maybe on 4g it lasts on 3 hours but no way with normal use

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] cyberstoic:
I was running the ota 2.2.1 and just hated how laggy it was. Prior to 2.2.1 I had CM 5 on it and then CM 6.1. The yoshi ginger is WAY faster than the 2.2.1ota and was a little faster than cm6.1. The lastest release of yoshi ginger 5.2 runs smooth and very fast with no noticable lag, I love it , it was almost like getting a new phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jrbs666:
I can agree with that, I ran cm6.1 until they decided they were not making a DS version for sapphire. Cyanogen has alot of themes and different tweaks that I can't get with yoshi ( as far as I know) but yoshi is running fantastic with the 2.3.2 platform
[Desire General] richardmugford:
With all the new versions of the Desire becoming available is the original Desire still the best?

I love my desire and I've had it for about 10 months or so. The wife's contract is due for renewal soon and she does seems to like my HTC desire.

It would be her first smart phone.

I'm very pleased with mine. I am currently running an older LeeDroid ROM (Soon to be upgraded with his latest to be released version).

Would the original Desire still cut the mustard for the next 18 months or so?
[Desire General] yaqub1:
Desire has been around for around 1 Year and till today it is one of the top phones. I own a Desire myself and have to say it's a great phone till today.

There's quite alot of phones coming out but nothing amazing has come out yet.

Not many people like the new Desire S because it's not that different from the standard Desire.Just a tiny bit different in memory.

Desire HD is quite big and battery life is appaling.

Desire Z quite heavy.

All the new versions aren't that amazing that would make me jump to them instead of staying with my Original Desire.

I've heard good things about the samsung galaxy S 2 which is coming out in March.If you want to consider that.
[Desire General] htrx:
True that - I was expecting dual-core HTCs early this year.

The way I see it, the Desire would probably get left behind by HTC in the following 3 or 4 months (right after we get the official Gingerbread in April) to make room for their newer (dual-core?) models. After that? Well, it's up to us to keep it "alive and kicking" with new ROMs and crazy experimental stuff.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
I think for new people the Desire S is probably a good choice... enough internal memory and a good size.

I think this is the point of the S... to be something to bring new people in. I love the desire original and wouldn't upgrade to an S
[Desire General] Harrysoon:
I think it is one of the best phones around still around.

I like the Desire S, think it looks quite nice, but not enough internal differences to justify an upgrade just yet.

I don't really like the Desire HD. Much too large to use with just one hand. Desire Z is a bit heavy, but I guess it caters for the people who prefer a physical keyboard.

I've still got about 14 months left with my Desire, so nearly 18 months, and I'm more than sure it'll be just fine for that amount of time.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
what phone does your wife have at the moment?

I assume not a Desire - Desire / Desire S would make sense unless she wanted a bigger screen (Desire HD)

for me - like Jigswa said - the DHD is too big personally...

Oh also - unless you want rooting and custom roms and stuff - a DS would make sense (over the Desire Original) if you can hold out for it...

The only reason I say it is because its likely to be around for longer than the Desire original from an official capacity...
[Desire General] richardmugford:
She's currently got a Nokia 6700 I think. Nothing fancy. But with her love of Facebook and Angry Birds :D she want's to now get a smart phone. Oh and something she can use for mobile broadband i.e. tethering.

A colleague of mine has just got a Galaxy S and to me it seemed a bit lightweight and felt plasticy.

I'm, trying to get her a decent 18 month contract. I've seen a few good little deals.

She probably won't want exactly the same phone as me. So maybe a Desire S would be the better option.
[Desire General] echoesofthe60s:
Had 2 iPhones before finally taking the plunge into Android. Had my eye on the Desire for awhile and thank god I finally bought it. Running the Oxygen Gingerbread rom ATM.. easiest thing in the world to get running. Had it for about 8 months now too but I won't be upgrading atleast until dual-core htc's.
[Desire General] Lothaen:
I know exactly where you are coming from with the Galaxy S feeling light and plasticy - the Desire feels more substantial - as long as you don't want a super light phone!

Also I felt the UI was clunky and too iPhone-esque

the DHD felt heavier than the Desire too.

Desire S will fix any issues with installing stuff to the phone too by having the same storage space as the DHD - it will have Gingerbread out the box, and a nice clean Sense UI :) win win all round.

Desire S seems a perfect phone for people who don't have Android already IMO!
[Desire General] feyd1980:
Apart from weak GPU, weak multi-touch in games, and lack of native DIVX support, I think Desire is still a good phone if those are not important too you. The battery and the internal memory are not issues for me anymore with custom ROMS and HBOOT.
[Desire General] Tamil92:
HTC Desire Is 5x better then S(boottime, apps launchtime..so many bugs) i realy like my Desire Using 8 months
[Desire General] erklat:
It is simply amazing how many people claim this, someone would get under impression it is true...

Desire S has moar internal memory, moar ram, packs 2nd generation Qualcomm cpus which rectify the first gen shortcomings, and on top of that, has better battery. Although it is not in the upgrade path for the original Desire owners, it is an upgrade nevertheless and excellent choice for the new users. You are trashing a device with superb specifications b4 it even went retail.

I agree, a colleague of mine has it. My fist is of enough size to comfortably use the biggest mices, yet I can't reach the opposite end of the screen with my thumb :D

Battery is roughly equal to the original Desire, both devices out of the box.

The biggest issue in my opinion is that they stuffed equal resolution on 0.6" bigger screen. Greater dot pitch usually means lower quality, I haven't used it enough to be 100% sure though.
[Desire General] Kung Fu Spoon:
The original Desire still has a lot of processing grunt compared to newer phones. Nothing is really better than it so to speak, a few phones are better at some things and worse at other but generally it's pretty level and just comes down to prefferance on a few features.

It'll be a sad day when I do retire my Desire its served me well so far and has at least a year left in it.
